What is Vedic Art
The 17 Vedic Art principles, were created by Curt Kallmann in 1988 in Sweden, they are rooted in ancient Indian teachings (the Vedas), and they serve as guides to both art and life. According to Vedic scribes, we all possess innate knowledge about ourselves and life, similar to a seed knowing it will become a flower. These principles reveal a way of life and dormant natural laws within us, waiting to be activated.
​
Participating in a Vedic Art course offers a pathway to unleash creativity, alleviate stress, generate new ideas and personal development. Open to all, regardless of painting experience, the course serves as valuable training for creative professionals or a transformative lifestyle for beginners. By embracing the Vedic Art principles, you can awaken unique gifts, express yourself authentically, create without constraints, boost self-confidence, and align with your heart's guidance.
​
There's no concept of achievement or value judgment in Vedic Art, the end result is not as important as the process itself.
Vedic Art is comprises of two levels
The 1st Level (Foundation) course introduces the 17 principles, launching participants on a spiritual and creative journey. The 2nd Level (Continuation) delves deeper into the principles, fostering a stronger connection with your inner creative self. Both levels, each taking 30 hours to complete, are taught in the island of Aegina, in English, Dutch, Swedish and Greek. In order to take the Continuation course you will need to complete the Foundation course first, if you haven’t already.
The courses span over six days, totaling 30 hours, with both theory and practice covered in each session. Daily schedules run from 10:00 to 18:00, but you're welcome to continue painting for as long as you like.
